Executive Summary

This package is a very paranoid password manager. It consists of two
parts: a front-end command-line interface, and a back-end library
(which can be used to create prettier interfaces).

It is important to note that there is no password recovery service.
If you enter an incorrect master password, you will simply get
incorrect passwords from the database. This is by design. It makes
the password database much more resistant to a brute-force attack.
DON'T FORGET YOUR MASTER PASSWORD.

Once installed, the program can be run by typing passman in your
terminal.

Installing

This package uses Haskell Stack. Please
